Satan started the philosophy of Rationalism in the Garden of Eden when He said, “You shall be as gods knowing both good and evil.” Rationalism surged among philosophers around 570 years before Christ. It surged again during the so-called “Enlightenment” starting around 1635 in France. Rationalistic thinking is ungodly thinking. It denies that all truth, wisdom, knowledge, understanding, righteousness, holiness, and freedom from sin are found only in Christ. And it denies originals sin. In the early 1700s, rationalists opposed the Great Awakening. Not too many years later, rationalists opposed the Second Great Awakening.

The battle continues to the present. The fight is still between made-up stuff and divine revelation. Naturalism and Materialism became popular doctrines in the 1600s. Charles Lyell and Charles Darwin worked to denigrate the Bible in the 1800s. From the start, the rationalists resorted to appeal-to-ridicule fallacies and appeal-to-popularity fallacies. When those didn’t work, they went to message-control and censorship. When those didn’t work, they resorted to violence and coercion. That continues to this day. Rationalism was confined to the Unitarian Church at first, but the infection spread. You can see it today in many religious and secular organizations.

Come Into This Place—ascension

Come Into This Place—ascension

Come Into This Place—ascension

Come into this place–ascension,
Where no death can enter in,
My own life through resurrection,
Qualifies this Corporate Man.

I am ready now to speak as,
I am righteous evermore,
New ascension brings authority,
And I have opened up your door.

Almost everyone believes in miraculous revelation. Few will admit it. Most never even admit it to themselves. Many base their thoughts on a form of miraculous revelation called “Rationalism.” Rationalists are particularly sensitive and defensive about this since they think they are the rational ones. Rationalism is irrational. Rationalism is assuming and trying to make those assumptions seem rational. It’s a method of trying to make irrational thinking seem rational.

Formal philosophies of Rationalism exist. Rationalist philosophers believe the human mind can self-generate truth without the benefit of divine revelation or observation. They believe all humans have goodness in them. They deny the biblical doctrine of original sin. They claim human intellect can reason to the truth. And that’s a circular reasoning fallacy. Rationalism makes human intellect into a god.

Don’t let the tactics of godless thinkers deceive you when you ask them how they know. Without Christ, there is no path to truth. Godless thinkers offer proofs that don’t prove what they’re trying to prove. They offer proofs, but they have no proof of the proofs. They offer proofs that aren’t necessarily true. And they end in an infinite regression of unproved proofs. They resort to name-calling, emotion, intimidation, ridicule, or bullying. They just insist they are correct about whatever opinion they have, and they ask you to believe their claims without proving the claims are true. Don’t let them fool you. Don’t let them wear you out.

The question is, “How do you know?” Have you asked this question? You don’t get a solid answer? Did someone avoid answering you? Did they give you a ridiculous answer?

All wisdom and knowledge are hidden in Christ. Without Christ, there is no path to truth, knowledge, or wisdom.

The Critical Question

“How do you know?” That’s one of the most important questions you could ever ask anyone. Not only should you ask others, but each of you ought to ask yourself that question many times each day. “How do you know?” Asking that question should be a habit. When someone tries to persuade you, you can ask that question. You could phrase your question several different ways. “What makes you think so?” “What gives you that idea?” “What’s the basis of your thinking on that?” “How do you arrive at that conclusion?”

It’s a tough question, and few people can answer it rationally regardless of the subject. Most people drift off into the land of make-believe or suddenly leave the conversation because they don’t want to think things through.

In the final analysis, there are only two sources of knowledge: divine revelation or made-up stuff. Divine revelation is available in Jesus only. All wisdom and knowledge are hidden in Him. Some may argue against this, but those arguments fall apart quickly if you think things through to the end.

There’s a reason the intellectuals come up with irrational ideas. It’s not that they’re stupid. They’re intelligent. Lack of intelligence isn’t the problem. The problem is they aren’t reasoning from truth.

The intellectuals and power-brokers try to enforce their ideas by appealing to wokeness (hyper political correctness). If you don’t blindly believe their nonsense, they try to destroy you. They shame you. They call you names. If you don’t agree with their insanity, they imply you’re ignorant, insane, or evil. They judge you to be politically incorrect and a bad person. They judge you according to their immoral thinking. They call you “judgmental.” They call you “closed-minded.”

I understand wokeness. It morphed from something called “political correctness.” I understand political correctness. It morphed from something called “the new morality.” I understand the new morality because it’s the old foolishness and self-righteousness mixed with the old immorality.

There’s a reason the intellectuals come up with irrational ideas. It’s not that they’re stupid. They’re intelligent. Lack of intelligence isn’t the problem. The problem is they aren’t reasoning from truth. Schools have stopped teaching students that sound reasoning must always begin with the truth. That’s because those who are running the show don’t believe finding the truth is possible.

I want to assure you that you can know the truth. When I say “know the truth,” I mean knowing with certainty. You can be certain about what is true and what is false. You can know what’s right and what’s wrong. However, there’s a secret to it. There’s a way to know the truth, but you need the key. How many people understand the secret? Before you’re finished, I’ll show you the secret key to knowing the truth and knowing the difference between truth and error.

Come all ye who are weary,
And I will give thee rest,
I will give thee rest,

My yoke, it is easy, and my burden is light,
I will lead thee, and you’ll have perfect sight.
For ye did run well, so who shall hinder thee?
Who shall hinder thee?
Who shall hinder thee?
These trials are given, so that I may set you free,
A pillar in My house, you’ll be.

The world has gone crazy because it has no truth. Intellectuals make many bizarre claims.

Here’s what can happen to you. Over the months and years, you can start to feel comfortable with their bizarre claims. You can become numb. After a while, some old bizarre claims don’t sound so crazy anymore even though they’re just as crazy as when you first heard them. You may have resisted the lunacy at first, but the crazy people persisted and repeated their messages until those messages sounded normal to you. You became as crazy as the crazy people because you let them normalize insanity for you. You internalized craziness. You let craziness become part of your inner concept of reality.

I hope you’ve escaped this insanity. It’s almost impossible. It takes a miracle to escape.

And new bizarre claims keep coming. The new claims may sound wild for now, but you’ll accept them if you aren’t careful. Then, you’ll be just as idiotic as the elite intellectuals who made the claims in the first place.

And yet truth is in charge and will ultimately win the war. Jesus shows the way for all who follow Him. He reveals the meaning of life. He explains the Bible.

However, don’t let anyone deceive you. Divine revelation will never conflict with Scripture. It will show you how to apply Scripture to your life. It will expose those who add their own ideas to Scripture. It will lead you in ways that agree with Scripture, but it will never disagree with Scripture.

Here’s the problem. You can’t know anything for certain without absolute truth. If your thoughts aren’t based on absolute truth, then your thoughts are mere opinions. I’ve been guilty of this. I’ve had God speak to me and tell me that I based my thinking on nothing at all. That shook me to my core.

So, how can anyone even survive without truth? If a person without truth can’t be rational, wouldn’t every person in this predicament live in poverty or die quickly at a young age? It doesn’t work that way. Irrational people do get into high positions and do live what appear to be normal lives. Just think of some people you’ve seen in top positions and the poor decisions they’ve made.

All wisdom and knowledge are hidden in Christ. Christ is the Light. He lights every person. God’s rain falls on the righteous and the unrighteous. Some people just refuse to acknowledge and thank God. What happens to them? God tells us in Romans 1: “Because that, when they knew God, they glorified him not as God, neither were thankful; but became vain in their imaginations, and their foolish heart was darkened. Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools.”
